Christine has a new note, CAT! We look to see which way the STEM (TAIL) goes. Does it go to the BLUE PLAYGROUND? Play with BLUE HAND. Does it go to the RED PLAYGROUND? Then play with the RED HAND.
Christine can move on in her book by watching the videos.
Christine can play more gently on the keyboard and rhythms. She is pressing extra hard. She needs to check her starting notes.
